people of the old world(?) + recognition through the eyes Will & Katherine (Dark Rise, Chapter 17) // Will & James (Dark Rise, Chapter 20) // Will & Visander (Dark Heir, Chapter 42) // Will & James/Anharion (Dark Heir, Chapter 51)

#dark rise #dark heir #will kempen #katherine kent #james st clair #visander #anharion #this (among other reasons) is why I think Katherine was the Lady reborn #this sort of instant connection only seems to occur between reborns/returners and not descendants #james never meets katherine and we don't get his pov when he meets visander #though we know that visander recognises him as anharion pretty instantly #but I would argue that he didn't need eye contact for it to happen bc #1) he knows what anharion looks like 2) james was doing what will asked of him and 3) he introduced himself as tdk's lieutenant #and this is also!! why I believe James hardware is running Anharion software at the moment #mine

I FINALLY SET UP MELON DS NOW I CAN PLAY HOTEL DUSK ROOM 215 (?)

#and other games that require vertical screens #like rhythm paradise for the DS #i usually use desmume but it didn't have any options for rotating the screens or not that i saw #also apparently melon ds has an option to connect external hardware which means i could play pokémon typing adventure in theory #magpie talks

why's it so hard to set up a custom minecraft server...

#like cmon I have a public facing server already #I know it works since the logs dont show any errors #and like ive tried running the exact same hardware+software setup on my local network #but like unfortunately the public facing server only has IPv6 #and I cant connect cause my ISP only issues IPv4 #and the other people I want to play with probably only have v4 as well #I guess the hosting provider I have technically has a v4->v6 proxy to allow ppl with v4 only to connect to their servers #but it only passes through http imap and smtp traffic #so its pretty much useless for what I want to do #and like so far finding a proxy service that actually does what i want it to do seems impossible #like PLEASE I WANNA PLAY MINECRAFT WITH SOMEONE ELSE #I DONT WANNA SPEND TIME TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE SERVER RUNNING

the bar for "revolutionary" webhorror is so low. what happened

#god lord im so sick of itttttttt ToT #if you dont know analogue horror is on is deathbed and now ppl are onto ''digital horror''#which is the same thing except using digital mediums instead of analogue (like the internet instead of vhs)#and i do mean the same thing lol nothing has changed #not the conventions of storytelling not the limitations of the medium not the types of scares it presents #the only thing that has changed is the aesthetic. and that is unbelievably sad #if youre going to do a horror series based in the internet then why not.... actually use the medium of the internet for horror #theres so many scary things about the internet (esp early internet!!!!!) and yet no one is using that for their series #just the same old ''missing children's spirit communicating through tape oops i mean the website :)'' like cmon man.... :(#why not use things like viruses or the sudden connection to any and everyone through the internet or early hoaxes/creepy ads #lack of regulation on the early internet or the isolating/uncanny aesthetics of old hardware (kid me was so scared of computers lol)#or literally anything else that is DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE MEDIUM YOUR SERIES IS BASED ON #does anyone else on earth care about this or am i just picky??? hello???#i just want smth that leaves a genuine impact. i just want a series that feels like smth thats never been done before #i just want webhorror that knows what it wants to be and fits neatly into the confines of its medium #petscop felt like a real videogame. it felt like smth i could see in an ''obscure ps1 games youve never heard about!!'' video #it had a will they wont they about whether or not the game was actually talking to paul (through ghosts or other users etc)#but it was never in your face and it was left just vague enough that instead of breaking immersion it sucked you in even more #paul felt like a real person playing a real game and experiencing genuine fear and obsession alongside the audience #there was never a point where the screen started turning red and pauls voice became distorted and ''scary'' while creepy imagery popped up #bc petscop works entirely within the limitations of a man playing a videogame. no more no less #thats the kind of dedication to the medium that i want!!!!!!#i only critique webhorror so much bc its my favourite type of horror and i want it to improve

Like that one post abt 'find out who are you and then do it on purpose' but instead its 'find out how to activate weird insane computer options you stumble into by accident using a keyboard shortcut. And then do them on purpose'

#like i saw a vid by technology connections abt microwaves #n he said he always finds out what all the buttons do even if just one will serve him fine #bcos he wants to see if he could be doing things even better or easier or just if theres any cool shit #n thats become a mantra. cutely dipping my toes into altering my laptop #i do need to take like a fundamentals class or smthn tho #im proficient in programs (esp figuring out what they do) but the actual OS and hardware i could stand to learn more abt

need to shell out for a new laptop before the end of the year - for a lot of reasons but mainly bc support ending for win8.1 makes fixing the current beast rather pointless :/ (and. admittedly. there is a lot to fix. she's old and she has suffered.)

but my current beastie is from the last gen of laptops with a disc drive and the thought of using an external/usb disc drive is enough to make me cry tears of blood

#really though it is time to upgrade #and i hate to say it because she /runs/ fine it's all hardware issues w parts that can absolutely be replaced #but if i can't use it to run the programs i need then shelling out the money for those parts would ultimately be a waste #but also the fact that this machine that runs fine is no longer worth fixing bc some google-based bullshit just won't support win8.1 anymor #is ALSO a fucking waste & a pile of planned obsolescence bullshit! and i hate it!#but uh. even though she runs fine and she totally does. she does need. uh.#new keyboard (only 1/3 of keys work; currently use usb keyboard)#new trackpad ribbon cable (trackpad does not currently work; using external usb mouse)#new power button and connecting ribbon cable (turning it on involves opening it up and causing an intentional short-circuit every time.)#(a problem largely solved by simply never turning her completely off- except she also needs)#a new battery (current battery does not charge at all; machine needs to be constantly plugged in or it shuts down immediately)#...ok i might be the 'this is fine' dog about this #but i am still upset! that i will no longer have a disc drive inside my damn laptop.#that's the disc drive's natural habitat; that's where it should be; it's weird and offputting to have it connected via usb!#ack. why do tech companies fuck everything up.#and that's without getting into the way new devices offer less harddrive space so people will use the fucking cloud or whatever???#yeah sorry no i'm not using your goddamn data mining corporate off-site storage i want to keep my shit on my own goddamn machine #go to actual hell if you're trying to sell me a pc with less than at least 500GB of storage i swear to fuck #...in essence you could say the whole process is leaving me rather grumpy

*goes back into AC1 with the intention of trying to finally finish it*

*discovers that the save file had somehow been deleted, forcing me to start over from the beginning*

*internally starts screaming*

#not only that; but I'm experiencing freezing issues and it even caused my computer to overheat and lock up #the exact same thing happened with AC4 and I haven't gone back to it since #probably due to a stupid Ubisoft Connect 'update'#ACU or ACS never did me this dirty #guess that's what I get for trying to play one of the older games on newer hardware #FML #crowie caws: personal #AC1

i hate html5 games. every time the connection to the server craps out for one second you get an error and lose all your progress. well maybe if you waited until the end of the game/round before trying to send my score like a civilised game we wouldn't be in this mess, fuck-o

#seriously how is this supposed to be an improvement over flash #you could play flash games offline for an hour if you wanted to #fond memories of waiting until my connection was back before hitting ''send score'' on neopets #because that was the only part of the game that required a fucking connection!!!!!!!#but no it's 2023 we gotta pretend that everyone in the world has a flawless connection AND the latest hardware #no one optimises anything for performance anymore #old man yelling at cloud #;

my face looks really different than what I think I look like. like I know I never saw myself "correctly", but it's not even about insecurities or gender stuff (i think). It's like my brain didn't update at some point and not only that, it veered off into a different idea of what I look like instead of noticing the actual features present.

#personal #girl the software is not reading the hardware properly !!!! ahhh !!!!#like i see my body more often so i know it from my own perspective but i never really just. look at my face.#and like testosterone & weight changes dont help that but it's not like my face utterly transforms with those things ?#like ill look at people and think ''wow they look like me!'' and then my friends are like. alex. no. what the fuck ?#ive always had this problem but i thought it'd get better at some point...#my dad apparently has it too #like we can recognize ourselves in pics but theres no actual connection ? idk how to describe it.

I think I should mention That I keep a tally of every time I get a connection error that affects my experience playing in Splat 3 per month.

Right now, Its at 43...

...averaging at about 2 disconnects per day. But it varies. I got 12 of those in a singular day, even when nobody else was using the wifi. So yes, Splatoon 3 definitely has... a kind of fragile netcode that ties everything together, considering, even more than the first game.

#do with this what you will #but I blame the hardware honestly #with it being peer 2 peer connection... thats just on user bandwidth #basically: the switch cant hold a connection on its own to save its life #and nintendo themselves suggest using an ethernet or LAN cable #not Something most people have as it requires a physical wire running from place to place #i know if I had one it would be awkwardly lying in the hallway and that... sucks LMAO
